There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Jamaica Plain to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
